Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
I could see a scum Matt Golden. He actually is coming across exasperated which I would expect him to be if he's Mafia AGAIN.
As I said before, he is a scum lean and the fact that you are scum reading him is lending weight to the read.
The only issue I have is that Matt has a tendency to be a scummy seeming townie, I am never sure of my read on him.
MP on the other hand... he's flown under my radar here so far. As I've mentioned before I've been pretty well skimming posts looking for tone pings or really standout things and MP hasn't flagged me.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
I have not played with Scotty before I don't think. Unless he has a different username on RYM. I have observed him in a couple of games here though and I got the impression he, like Matt, is quite a pingy player alignment aside... but here he has seemed to contradict himself quite badly on two occasions (Lovedelic + MP).

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
Yeah I've seen baddies call for lynching inactives before, I've also seen civs do it. IMO it is irrational civ behavior because I get the sentiment but it's not helpful. I find Matt's behavior more concerning and would vote for him over Scotty atm.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
Glorfindel was much the same in Star Wars. Unfailingly polite. He felt frustrated being suspected for being, essentially, nice (at least, that was my take on his frustration). He was replaced by Daisy, who I think turned out to be bad. But I have the sense that the nice, polite Glorfindel will be seen in all affiliations.S~V~S wrote:I am not sure, tbh. I was just intrigued by his reaction to having read the thread. There was alot of tunnel type stuff and some quite a bit of tension at some points going on, and he only noted one thing, and his opinion on that seemed a bit one dimensional.Typhoony wrote:Are you suspicious of Glorfindel SVS?
His reply was very well crafted; and tbh, it felt kind of *crafted* to me, if you get my feeling~ designed to appease. I can't be anywhere near sure at this point; he is unfailingly polite and I don't know him well, so have no basis of comparison. SO my initial thought, intrigued, best fits my feelings at this time, I think.
Do you have an opinion?

Because of our discussion I came to a different view, but thats how you came across to me, and why I suspected you at that time.Enrique wrote:This made me facepalm and it's just so terribly worded to make me look bad.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
I often get accused of things that point to my civ game and try to point out how my baddie game doesn't show those things and my civ game does. When I'm civ. I do it when I'm bad too... but I think meta is important.Bass_the_Clever wrote:I understand that but the thing that's bothering me this game with you is how you keep going out your way to say " I was bad when I did that" . I think it's typical baddie behavior to point out how they are playing the game different this game. If that makes any sense.a2thezebra wrote:You're obviously referring to Star Wars. For one, I was a baddie then. Two, I disagree that I was lynching low posters or even advocating the lynch of low posters. I think you got that impression because I did an ISO of every player on Day 1 to appear supatown with GTH reads on each one, but even then with most of the lower posters that I read as bad (and I read a lot of the higher posters as bad as well) I said with each one of them that I could easily change my mind because my thoughts on them came from such little content at that time, and in most cases that turned out to be true. Hell, one of the low posters that I read as bad was my teammate DrWilgy, and he was the only one I was really vocal about possibly advocating a lynch for later in the game.Bass_the_Clever wrote:I find this odd coming from you since in the past you have been for lynching low posters.a2thezebra wrote:Let me make it clear right now that I refuse to support the lynch of a low poster.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
This is something I do every game, regardless of my alignment. I do firmly believe in giving people who want to play the option to play and don't see why this is controversial to you. You seem like the aggressive type, from the games I've observed of you, so I'm not holding it against you, but I do think that your accusation that this is some sort of "carrion cry" is blown way out of proportion.MacDougall wrote:I feel like Scotty's argument for wanting to lynch (or more to the point expressing that sentiment) a no show is something I've seen scum do before at this point of the game.

Dom then went on to point out that Scotty "needs concrete info" ... I actually love Dom's point. Scotty doesn't want to lynch MP because he needs concrete info, but earlier he wanted to lynch lovedelic who hasn't even posted.
You don't agree with my principals. That's fine. I'm an odd bird, and I usually get shit on day 1 for being such. But I do not think I am contradicting myself here.
sig asked which of the low posters I found most suspicious, and I decided to get to that when I get to that, naming Equiv- who I don't know and is apparently new- as a policy no-lynch. He has a few posts and has made an effort. Fine.
There's only one no-poster and that is lovedelic. As an addendum to my previous comment, the fact that I have played with him before doesn't matter, but it helps my conscience. Let's say I haven't played with him before and he is new here. I'd still vote for him. I want to give new players a chance, but I have a hard time talking to a ghost.
As for my "needs concrete info" comment, my philosophy is that day 1 is a crapshoot. I am a more statistical voter- I tend to look at how people vote and the outcome of such. It's no secret that's just how I play my day 1. Just so you know.
If that is a basis for lynching me, then your mind is already made up.

While I don't agree that that is always bad, I do know that a lot of people believe it since I know *someone* always says that to me when I contrast my bad and good games.
Do you suspect Bass for thinking this?
My own perspective comes from the fact it is something I say when civ. I don't think bass is the kind who would. So he can only go from his own experience of it which he claims is normally baddie...
That seems fine to me.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
I feel very good about sig - but I can't deny that based on sig's history this could point to a baddie. He does normally seem to struggle a lot more when he is town.Glorfindel wrote:Have you now, my friend? Whilst I may not be familiar with the playstyles of a lot of people in this game, I am with yours. By you own admission (on multiple occasions) you have stated that you prefer to play Mafia and feel that you perform far better in such roles. From my experience, that is undeniably true. Looking to a recent example (Pikmin Mafia) where you were a Townie your performance was awful leading you to an early lynching that game. I'm not getting those vibes from you this game - I feel a pervading sense of self-assurance about your posts that concerns me a little. I'm not quite sure what to make of you persistent push to discuss the map...

I don't think thats grounds to vote for him, though, and I wouldn't unless I felt there were other reasons to see him as bad.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
Are you kidding me, DFaraday? I've explained my logic for no/low posters. You are often a low poster, and I don't hold that against you. I really don't. "Not talking" is not necessarily a reason in and of itself to suspect someone, but it can be suspicious nonetheless. It's the tone and quality of posts that I look at. Not posting much? That's fine, but at least have something substantive to say in so many words.DFaraday wrote:I think you've raised some good points. As a typically low poster myself, I'm wary of anyone who uses "not talking" as a reason to vote someone.

"a player who has teammates is more likely to contribute" Umm, ok, that is a strategy that can be used, I guess. But that isn't canon, no sir. I've seen plleeeeenty of low-posters that have turned out to be scum, wallflowering their way silently to endgame.
"Any ping at all is better than no ping (which is what you have when they literally haven't said anything)." Again, our philosophies differ here again. After 20 pages of bantering, you decide to come out of your cocoon and cast a vote on me because you think I am lumping anyone that doesn't post much as target practice? Really? I mean Jeez, I already said I'm voting for a no-poster, not a low poster. If I think that one of the low posters deserve my vote if and when lovedelic decides to play, I'll cross that bridge.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
Your case on Scotty is fine (The difference in his attitude between MP and low-posters in particular is a really good point that I agree with).
I was addressing people all calling him shifty, not your case. It's not my perception of Scotty's game play (even when bad).

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
At the risk of sounding like a complete fool, my problem with Star Wars was partly because of family problems and partly BECAUSE I was Mafia. I haven't been Mafia often but when I have, I'll admit that I struggled - it's hard to explain... I'm basically pretty much 'a heart on my sleeve' kinda person and for some reason my discomfort at having to lie to people (especially those with whom I consider friends) does make me quite transparent when I'm drawn a role like that. Basically, I'm just very bad at being badGolden wrote:Glorfindel was much the same in Star Wars. Unfailingly polite.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
I've had the same observation.

Nero - speak up. Glorfindel's assessment is right - your posts are insightful, but your quietness is concerning.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
Hard for me to say my friend. My involvement with Magnus is generally with games very different to Mafia and I've only played a handful (if that) of Mafia games with him. I'd hardly say he was a prolific poster in these kind of games and to be fair, this IS his first game on this site so I'm making allowance for that. I do find him articulate and intelligent and his intuition isn't bad. I think he'd contribute constructively to the deliberations here...Sorsha wrote:Glorfindel- is that normal for nerolunar?

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
Hi everyone.
Im sorry about not posting more. Im housing a friend who can´t be at home because of private reasons and it is impacting how much I can read and post. She has highest priority rigfht now, but she will be returning on Friday so until then I won´t be playing much. Did go on yesterday and read from page 19-23 but didn´t have time to post. Okay, well here are some thoughts and reads that I have gathered:
I'm opposed to lynching low posters just for the sake of it. It´s strange that Lovedelic has not posted at all, but I wouldn´t waste a lynch on him in case he is going to get modkilled anyway. I don´t know these hosts, but the opportunity is still there. We should hunt for the mafia or inmates instead right now.
Im lacking scum reads on people right now. I don´t like how Metalmarsh instantly voted for Zebra, especially when we had a whole day ahead of us. Im still reading Zebra as slightly scummy, but Metals behavior still strikes me as odd. Elaborate on that please.
Glorfy was also really polite last time we played. He was civ there. I don´t read him as mafia, but maybe independent this game. Not a primary lynch target right now.
Im finding Juliets and Bea really hard to read. They are both very floaty and not posting that much(maybe because of private reasons) but I will be keeping an eye on them for a while. Especially Juliets. I know I have also been somewhat floaty and not contributing that much, but I just didn´t feel like entering the arguments that some of you guys have had(Matt/Zebra, Golden/Enrique and so forth). Big walls of text about things that are kind of trivial are not appealing at all, sorry. Good discussions to have Im sure, but not something I would like to get involved in.
I wish Bullzeye, Bubbles and Floyd would post more. Im interested in hearing some thoughts from them.
How much time until EoD? I honestly don´t know who to vote for yet, as I don´t have clear scum reads on anyone.
Im sorry about not posting more. Im housing a friend who can´t be at home because of private reasons and it is impacting how much I can read and post. She has highest priority rigfht now, but she will be returning on Friday so until then I won´t be playing much. Did go on yesterday and read from page 19-23 but didn´t have time to post. Okay, well here are some thoughts and reads that I have gathered:
I'm opposed to lynching low posters just for the sake of it. It´s strange that Lovedelic has not posted at all, but I wouldn´t waste a lynch on him in case he is going to get modkilled anyway. I don´t know these hosts, but the opportunity is still there. We should hunt for the mafia or inmates instead right now.
Im lacking scum reads on people right now. I don´t like how Metalmarsh instantly voted for Zebra, especially when we had a whole day ahead of us. Im still reading Zebra as slightly scummy, but Metals behavior still strikes me as odd. Elaborate on that please.
Glorfy was also really polite last time we played. He was civ there. I don´t read him as mafia, but maybe independent this game. Not a primary lynch target right now.

Regardless, I think Nero should be lynched on grounds that he's my partner, your partner, Enrique's partner, the Joker, the Riddler, the Gingerbread Man, and Toto.

I was just intrigued by his reaction to having read the thread. There was alot of tunnel type stuff and some quite a bit of tension at some points going on, and he only noted one thing, and his opinion on that seemed a bit one dimensional.Typhoony wrote:Are you suspicious of Glorfindel SVS?
His reply was very well crafted; and tbh, it felt kind of *crafted* to me, if you get my feeling~ designed to appease. I can't be anywhere near sure at this point; he is unfailingly polite and I don't know him well, so have no basis of comparison. SO my initial thought, intrigued, best fits my feelings at this time, I think.
Do you have an opinion?I'll spoiler the post:
I know that carefully crafting posts and appeasing others are things that are in YOUR baddie wheelhouse SVS, as opposed to just winging it as a civ, so maybe it's genuine for you to call Glorfy out on that... but I think it's noteworthy that those same things could be said of your post. That said, you defended my honor in that post which you didn't have to do (and also appeased Mac's gut ) so if your intention was to appease me, you have mostly succeededSpoiler: show
I agree with you that baddie Matt lurked in the shadows most of the time he was bad in GoC, but I also agree with Glorfindel that there's something different abut his behavior here. Matt seemed genuinely frustrated and upset at both Zebra and the players not agreeing with him, and he let that seep into his tone more than I'm accustomed to seeing from him. I don't know what it means about his role, if anything at all, but it's a side of Matt I haven't seen before. He's usually so happy-go-lucky.
.

That initial post to Glorfindel was fairly carefully made, though. I wanted Glorfindel to actually TALK tome, not to run away screaming. So I did word it very precisely. I found it intriguing, as I said, that that was all he took away from his reread of the thread. I found him mildly suspicious, but not majorly so. But it obviously wasn't all that carefully crafted since Glorfindel did not answer all of my questions, and two other people immediately swooped in and asked if I was suspicious of him, lol.
And everyone keeps talking as if I was talking about his politness & good grammar. I was talking about his word choice and what he did and did not say. So my post was careful, yes, but in a totally different way. A careful question and a careful answer in Mafia are not the same.
As for you, I don't think your word choice odd, and if I was to suspect you, it would not be for that. Plus Mac, like Epi, really, CAN be uncanny. So I won't blow someones opinion off for being a tone reader, since I am one as well. So I will keep his opinion in the back of my head, but I would not vote for you based on it. This is how I actually feel and I said so.
Linki, This host (at least one of them) does not like to modkill. And nice to see you

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
What? I got a new laptop a few months ago, an ASUS. With my old laptop, I could rest my wrists on the edge of the front, and just type. This one has a huge space between the edge and the keys, so I have to hover over, and it has been a learning curve, lol. I ran all my words together for a while. It is oneof the reasons I stayed out of the chatrooms in GOC as much as possible, harder to proofread and still keep up with the conversation.Golden wrote:Oh SVS, this is just...S~V~S wrote:formy atrocious typing

I was always a horrible typist, but this laptop is teaching me to be a better proofreader. But I still miss a few. Maybe one day I will even get rid of "Becasue".
Not sure if you think that typo is "carefully crafted" since you liked THs point, but it was just a typo. Honest.

End of Day is shown in the poll. It is 8:30 PM eastern. You are in Europe, I believe? Western Europe is a 6 hour shift, so 2:30 AM your time I believe. Do you have theboard set to your time zone?

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
I don't know if I like being lumped in with those two. I may be a low poster but I now have seven times as many posts as either of them do and did say before the game began that I'd be missing the first few days. I didn't actually expect to be home until today, but work stuff came up so I came back early. I've made an effort to get myself involved and find some investment since I got back whereas Bubbles and Floyd seem not to have made an effort at all.Nerolunar wrote: I wish Bullzeye, Bubbles and Floyd would post more.

I have no problem being called out for being a low poster I just specifically didn't like being compared with those two.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
Magnus, Hi, Buddy
I was just curious - you said you felt that Zebra was "slightly scummy" (as much as I detest that word) - are you able to elaborate as to why you think that? I respect your ability and your views and given the more she posts the more I'm convinced she's not Mafia, I'd like to understand what you see that perhaps I don't.

Re: Arkham Mafia [Day 1]
The line under the Time Zone drop down; for me it is set to "No" since it is Winter here:

Whichever one you have checked (since it is summer where you are; iirc someone said you are in Oz?) try checking the other option and see how that works for you.
